Specify separator within setupbtx for custom bibliography rendering
by Gerion Entrup 21 Jun '24

21 Jun '24

Hi, according to the section "Custom citation renderings" in the bibliography manual, I have specified an own setup for citation rendering. However, this seems only to work for single citations (of one source). I want to also specify the separator but did not get it to run. Here is a minimal example: ``` \setupinteraction[state=start] \startbuffer[testdata] @Book{knuth1, author = {Donald E. Knuth}, title = {TEX and METAFONT. New directions in typesetting}, year = {1979}, publisher = {Addison-Wesley}, } @Article{someother, author = {Some Person and Some Otherperson}, title = {Another title}, year = {1900}, } \stopbuffer % enable tracing \enabletrackers[publications, publications.crossref, publications.details, publications.cite, publications.strings] \usebtxdataset[main][testdata.buffer] \usebtxdefinitions[aps] \setupbtx[dataset=main] \definebtxrendering[bibrendering][aps][dataset=main, numbering=short] \setupbtxlist[aps][ alternative=b, distance=.5em, ] \definebtx[aps:cite:special][aps:cite][ left={((}, right={))}, separator:2={sfd}, separator:3={sfd}, separator:4={sfd}, ] \startsetups btx:aps:cite:special % just a dummy \btxcitereference \currentbtxtag \stopsetups \setupbtx[aps:cite][ alternative=special, ] \starttext Both said something~\cite[knuth1, someother]. \placelistofpublications[bibrendering] \stoptext ``` The output of this is: > Both said something ((knuth1someother)). How can I get the separator to work? My expectation would be: > Both said something ((knuth1sfdsomeother)). or > Both said something ((knuth1sfd someother)). Best, Gerion

\brokenpenalties query
by Alan Bowen 21 Jun '24

21 Jun '24

I have in the past relied on \setpenalties\brokenpenalties{1}{10000}\ to set the penalty for a page break after a hyphen. But with the latest LMTX, when I run the file, I get the error message Error count has to be 1 for \brokenpenalties Any advice on how to fix the file would be most welcome. Alan

Transparency in external PDFs does not work
by Gerion Entrup 21 Jun '24

21 Jun '24

Hi, I'm using LaTeX-Beamer and TikZ for figure typesetting. With this combination, it is easy to combine Beamer's animation system with TikZ transparency feature. This way, the resulting PDFs contain the full graphic on every page, but parts of it are invisible for a specific page. One of these files is attached as an example. The problem is to embed these PDFs into a ConTeXt document. For example, this MWE seems to not respect transparency (see mwe.pdf): ``` \starttext \externalfigure[fig.pdf][page=1] \stoptext ``` I use Okular/Poppler as PDF viewer. Can I fix this somehow or is it a bug somewhere deeper? Best Gerion

URL in footnote citation
by Kip Warner 20 Jun '24

20 Jun '24

Hello list, I am trying to get my references that have URLs to automatically set the entry title to the URL and not print the URL after it. Here is a minimal: \startbuffer[testdata] @Article{wikipedia2024_depeche_mode_sounds_of_the_universe, author = {{Wikipedia contributors}}, title = {Sounds of the Universe}, year = {2024}, url = {https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sounds_of_the_Universe&oldid=1224785220}, note = "[Online; accessed 20-May-2024]" } \stopbuffer % Setup bibliography... % Select References.bib and name it the main database... \usebtxdataset[main][testdata.buffer] % Citation style... \usebtxdefinitions[apa] % Use our main dataset for citations... \setupbtx[dataset=main] \definebtxrendering[main][apa][dataset=main] \setupbtxrendering[main][ pagestate=start, continue=yes, numbering=yes] % Macro to put the citations as footnotes... \unexpanded\def\footnotecite{\dodoubleempty\domycite} \def\domycite[#1][#2]% {\ifsecondargument \footnote{\alwayscite[alternative=entry,#1][main::#2]}% \else \footnote{\alwayscite[alternative=entry][main::#1]}% \fi} \starttext Some footnote.\footnotecite[wikipedia2024_depeche_mode_sounds_of_the_universe] \stoptext The footnote renders like so: Wikipedia contributors (2024). Sounds of the Universe. Retrieved from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sounds_of_the_Universe&oldid =1224785220 ([Online; accessed 20-May-2024]) It would look much better if it looked like so: Wikipedia contributors (2024). Sounds of the Universe. ([Online; accessed 20-May-2024]) ...where "Sounds of the Universe" is linked to the URL in the BibTeX database. Is this possible to do? -- Kip Warner OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com

upgrade problem, more info
by jbf 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

I should give a little more info on the upgrade problem. My system is Linux (Mint). Context installed at /home/jbf/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/context Current version after upgrade : 2024.06.18 22:04 I tried reinstalling, but same result: error, no format found with name: cont-en, aborting And the simpler fact is that everything worked as normal before I upgraded. I tried deleting texmf-cache, running mtxrun -- generate and context --make but problem still persists. Don't know if it is relevant but after running context --make I see an error line: lua error > lua error on line 18 in file typo-lin.mkxl: But that would seem to be a different error to the 'no format found....' error. Or is it? Julian

I have just upgraded Context to the latest, but am getting the message: mtx-context | warning: no format found, forcing remake (commandline driven) and at the end, mtx-context | error, no format found with name: cont-en, aborting Is there something that did not work properly in the upgrade or have I possibly created the problem somehow?

Arranging bullets within tabulate and itemize
by context＠vivaldi.net 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Hello, here is a simple code: ---- \definedescription[Mat] [headstyle=bi, text={Foo},alternative=serried,width_=fit,indenting_={yes,medium},indenting_=no,align_=left,indentnext_=no,hang_=none, ] \starttext \startMat \startitemize[packed,][] \starttabulate[|l|l|l|] \NI Aaa \NC Aa \NC\AR \NI Bbb \NC Bb \NC\AR \stoptabulate \stopitemize \stopMat \startMat \startitemize[packed_,joinedup_][afterhead=,] \head Ttt \par Tt \head Uuu \par Uu \stopitemize \stopMat \stoptext ---- which produces something like: Foo • Aaa Aa • Bbb Bb Foo • Ttt Tt • Uuu Uu I cannot find out how to arrange the tabulate bullets straight above those of itemize, so how to supress the left indeting, to get: Foo • Aaa Aa • Bbb Bb Foo • Ttt Tt • Uuu Uu How do I achieve this? TIA. Best regards, Lukas

digital signing in ConTeXt
by Pablo Rodriguez 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Dear list, the latest version of LMTX can digitally sign PDF documents. It requires OpenSSL installed (since it does the crypto part). I have two issues that I would like to be tested by others. A sample certificate may be found at https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/ntg-context@ntg.nl/message/ECSXLVMT3TM… (I sent it myself). Here is a sample document (actually provided by Hans): \setupinteraction[state=start] \definefield[signature][signed] \defineoverlay[signature][my signature] \starttext \startTEXpage[offset=1ts,frame=on,framecolor=darkblue] sign: \inframed[background=signature,framecolor=darkred] {\fieldbody[signature][width=3cm,option=hidden]} \stopTEXpage \stoptext After compiling the sample, you need to run: mtxrun --script pdf --sign --certificate=c.pfx --password=ABCabc doc.pdf Password will be prompted again ("ABCabc"), since it is an encrypted certificate (also for the public part). Could anyone confirm the following issues? 1. The signature I get is wrong, unless I apply this patch (https://mailman.ntg.nl/archives/list/dev-context@ntg.nl/message/T3OCKVZWTUT… [sent by myself to the devel list]). 2. I cannot get any signature display in Acrobat. Does any PDF viewer (I have tested this with pdfsig from poppler and MuPDF-GL) display the digital signature at all? Many thanks for your help, Pablo
